What is a State Innovation Model Grant?
SIM grants are awarded by the federal government through the Center for Medicaid and Medicare Services (CMS) Innovation center. Grants are awarded to states that have demonstrated a commitment to developing and implementing multi-payer health care payment and service delivery models that will:
Connecticut awarded a $45 million test grant in December 2014 which will be implemented over the next five years.

Connecticut’s Current Health System: “As Is”
Limited accountability
Unsustainable growth in costs

Escalating costs mean…
….patients will experience ….communities will experience
Money for programs that support housing, education, the environment, and community development
Insurance premiums resulting in less take-home pay
Deductibles and co-pays for needed medical care
Access to social services and Medicaid
Escalating costs mean…
….the business community will experience

New and innovative approaches
...the use of plan incentives to encourage employee adoption of one or more of the following:
Value-based Insurance Design
Use high value services (e.g., preventative services, certain prescription drugs)
Adopt healthy lifestyles (e.g. smoking cessation, physical activity)
Use high performance providersWho adhere to evidence-based treatment
Health promotion & disease management
Health coaching & treatment support

VBID Landscape in Connecticut
42
V-BID Principles
Clinical Nuance:
1) Medical services differ in the amount of health produced
2) Clinical benefit derived from specific service depends on the consumer using it
With a Value-Based Insurance Design, consumer cost-sharing level is based on clinical benefit – not acquisition price – of the service
• Reduces or eliminates financial barriers to high-value clinical services and providers
43
V-BID Principles
An effective V-BID plan uses carrots and sticks
• Reduce barriers to high value services
• Preventive care screenings
• Chronic condition treatment
• Reduce prescription drug co-pays
• Members maintain medical choice
• Personal autonomy key union value
44
Connecticut’s Health Enhancement Program (HEP)
• Joint Labor/Management Healthcare Cost Containment Committee
• Between 2007-2011 HCCCC discussed Value Based Purchasing and Value Based Insurance Design
• In 2010 the state required ASOs to enter Patient Centered Medical Home arrangements to improve healthcare delivery and lower costs
• Labor members of HCCCC explored VBID to increase member engagement and lower costs
• In 2011, Malloy administration took office with a $3.8B deficit–Administration proposed savings through traditional cost shifting
– Labor coalition countered with VBID proposal to make employees healthier
– Labor proposal turned win/loss fight to win/win
45
HEP
Targets preventive care and chronic disease through:
• Voluntary enrollment for employees
• Required age appropriate preventive screenings and care
• Lower co-pays for medications/care associated with five chronic diseases and conditions
• Chronic disease management education program
Lowers costs for participating/compliant employees by:
• Waiving co-pays for preventive care and chronic disease management
• Reducing monthly premium share ($100 per month)

About the Project
47
Goal
This initiative aims to increase uptake of V-BID in Connecticut
by developing a V-BID prototype of recommended practices and plans,
with strategies and tools to select and promote V-BID plans
48
Deliverables
1. Assess and index V-BID models both in Connecticut and nationally
2. Make recommendations for the best models for Connecticut markets
3. Develop templates and employer guidance for recommended content of a V-BID benefit plan that is applicable to self and fully-insured employers, and public and private exchanges
4. A web-based V-BID Toolkit for employers
5. Targeted communications materials for employers and consumers
6. Disseminate best practices through V-BID Learning Collaborative
49
Role of Consortium
The Consortium will serve as an advisory body for the V-BID Initiative: Advise on strategies for health plan/employer engagementMake recommendations for employer adoption of V-BIDAdvise on structure and goals of Learning CollaborativeRecommend members/networks for Learning CollaborativeInform development of
• V-BID plan template(s)• V-BID Toolkit• Communications materials• Employer guidance for V-BID adoption

THOMAS WOODRUFF, PHD, OFFICE OF THE STATE COMPTROLLER
What Does a Model V-BID Plan Look Like?
52
Building a Framework for V-BID Assessment
Purpose of assessment framework: • To guide recommendations of value based insurance design concepts to
be adopted by employers, health plans and exchanges as part of VBID plan templates for various Connecticut market segments
Concepts Adapted from CMS Medicare Advantage Model• 5 year demonstration program for state grantees
• Testing utility of structuring consumer cost-sharing and other health plan design elements to encourage patients to use high value services and providers
53
V-BID Concepts
V-BID Concept Reduced cost sharing for high value services and drugs
Purpose Encourage healthy patient choices; Encourage use of high value, evidence-based services and treatments
Leverage point Patient-based: clinically nuanced
Examples Waive copay for biennial colonoscopy in ulcerative colitis (nuanced)
54
V-BID Concept Increased cost sharing for low value services and drugs
Purpose Discourage unhealthy patient choices; Discourage use of low value services and treatments
Leverage point Patient-based: clinically nuanced
Examples Increase co-pay on inappropriate imaging for acute low back pain
V-BID Concepts
VBID Concept Reduced cost sharing for high value providersPurpose Encourage healthy patient choices. Encourage prudent provider practice.
Leverage point Patient-based: clinically nuancedProvider-based: specialty, affiliation, or past behavior
Examples Lower copay if MD affiliated with high-performing ACO (tiering).
55
V-BID Concepts
VBID Concept Reduced cost sharing for disease management programsPurpose Encourage healthy patient choices for targeted groups
Leverage point Patient-based: clinically nuanced. Based on participation
Examples Waive co-pay for recommended medications for patients with asthma who participate in medication adherence program
56
V-BID Concepts
VBID Concept Coverage of supplemental, high value benefitsPurpose Encourage healthy patient choices for targeted groups
Leverage point Patient-based: clinically nuanced
Examples Coverage of transportation to primary care appointments for patients with multiple chronic diseases.
57
Building a Framework for V-BID Assessment
How are VBID concepts implemented in health plan design? Consider:
1. Are VBID concepts present?
2. What percent of members do they apply to?
3. What percent of spending do they apply to?
4. What percent of conditions do they apply to?
5. How strong are the incentives (e.g., how big is cost differential)?
6. How closely targeted (how close to Evidence Based Medicine)?
7. How easy is it to implement?
8. Are the outcomes/impact measurable?
9. Are the outcomes/impact significant?
58
Discussion: Challenges and opportunities of adopting V-BID in Connecticut

Next Steps:
V-BID plans in Connecticut survey and assessment
SWOT analysis of employer uptake of V-BID
